Sweltering. That is the weather we have been blessed with for the past 4 days. Yesterday it was 85 degrees at 7am. Today the high was 98, and there was no breeze to speak of. Miserable, especially without central air, in a city full of brick rowhouses that just cook in the sun even on warm days.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the disgusting heat, Andrew, Milo and I have found more than enough to do. We enjoyed the company of a good friend, Miguel, who visited us from Belgium for the weekend. We cooked out, ate ice cream on the stoop, and chatted with neighbors. On Sunday, we ventured to Cockeysville (just north of the city) to celebrate Ben’s first birthday… and play cornhole, of course. We got to meet the extended family and gorge ourselves on cake before heading home to go to bed early. We had a great time, as usual!<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>Yesterday was another ridiculously hot day. I jogged Milo down to the Inner Harbor where there is a great Barnes & Noble, equipped with huge aquarium, train set, cafe, and most important… air conditioning. We spent a good 3 hours there, no joke.

<\/span><\/span><\/span>Today was just as hot as ever, but you’d never know it based on how hard these guys play. Milo and Ben had a good time sweatin’ in our living room. Ben practiced walking, soccer, and music skills, while Milo attempted to bring down the house.

\"\"<\/a>They also had a jam session, with Milo dancing to the sound of Ben’s monkey-cymbals. I’m telling you, he had some pretty sweet moves, mainly in the hip region. If you’ve never seen a baby dance, shame on you. It’s pretty fantastic.
